Latios δ

Description

The Latios δ card, designated as number 12 in the 2006 Holon Phantoms set, represents a pivotal figure in the Pokémon Trading Card Game's early 2000s era. As a Basic Water-type Pokémon with 80 Hit Points, this card offers distinct strategic interactions defined by its unique abilities and attacks. The Dual Aura ability creates a powerful board presence: as long as a Latias or Latias ex is in play, it prevents all opposing Evolved Pokémon (excluding Pokémon-ex) from using any Poké-Bodies. This mechanic encourages deck builders to pair Latios δ with its counterpart for tactical advantage. The card's offensive capability centers on its Aqua Blast attack, which deals 50 damage but requires the player to discard a Water Energy attached to Latios. This cost adds a layer of resource management to its use, making it a dynamic choice for players who can balance their energy attachments effectively. The Colorless Dive attack provides a minimal 10 damage option, offering flexibility when energy resources are tight. With a retreat cost of just 1, Latios δ can move quickly to adjust positioning during the game. Collectors of the Holon Phantoms series often seek this Holo Rare card for its visual finish and its role in the set's lore. For investors and hobbyists, this product is a key component for those completing the Holon Phantoms collection or building themed decks around Water-type strategies. Its status as a Holo Rare treatment makes it a desirable addition to any serious Pokémon card collection, bridging the gap between competitive play and aesthetic appreciation. The card's Pokédex number, 381, further identifies it within the broader Pokémon universe, adding depth for lore-focused collectors.
